Jerome, on Matt 13:53
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
Matt 13:53 · Douay-Rheims
“And it came to pass: when Jesus had finished these parables, he passed from thence.”
On this verse:
“Or we may understand it otherwise, that Jesus is despised in His own house and country, signifies in the Jewish people; and therefore He did among them few miracles, that they might not be altogether without excuse; but among the Gentiles He does daily greater miracles by His Apostles, not so much in healing their bodies, as in saving their souls.”
